4.00We had been in San Sabastion foe a few days and thought we had visited most of the bars in the old town. during the tour we were shown seven bars that we had not visited, two of which became our go to bars for lunch. Great tour, great Pintxos and a great guide.

5.00This is a great pintxo tour of San Sebastián! Our tour guide was Gorka, he’s a local, and you could really tell. No, this tour won’t hit the top 3 pintxo bars you’ll see on Instagram but that’s the point - we discovered places we might not have walked into otherwise. Super worth the $ as well as far as food and drinks.
